My life has turned
the sullen color of grey.
Not pure enough for white,
not lost enough for black.
And so I remain; teetering on the edge.

Ok, many people know that I'm not much into short poetry but this one, in my mind, is just perfect. I love the way you took the grey, the middle of happiness and sadness and was able to put that simple emotion to such strong words with such a short poem. Even if it's a simple poem, it still speaks volumes. This one is definately one of my favorites
